3 stars Mount Rushmore in the background tumbles in deep rock, the heads cut directly into this famous mount, yes we thought they had done it for real and we didn't have Google earth to check the heads, in short we are there goes:

1 Speed King and this intro that will mark some purists for life, how the hell take a famous classic air and pass it here, modeled, remodeled but tweaked all the same? in short, a vocal fury that gives the premises of the famous live where he belched more than sang, Ritchie's first movements not in the right direction and that's how the title passes ... quickly and puts you in a trance, thanks Jon again. 2 Bloodsucker continues, at the limit of a Led Zep as if they had a tad war between them! the organ, the organ as a spearhead far from prog metal I tell you, the parsimonious riff, but not by that; the latency and then the frenzied solo of Ritchie; Roger's bass imparts the vital momentum while Jon and Ian put the turbo, in short, uncompromising 70s rock 3 Child In Time for the dreamlike, transexual mega tube, not LGBT+ either, yes I'm letting off steam, yes it's going up, yes the crescendo is a, yes the orgasm is coming.... which doesn't didn't think about it? yes the drum roll always makes me think of GENESIS with the knife; yes, Ritchie's solo break isn't terrible but he surfs on the madness generated, we begin to understand why he was moving his head like that while scratching; yes .... it stops suddenly and the silence with the cymbal is part of the music, the key of the organ too, yes it starts again; well I already talked about the Kenzo ad with this piece on it, my girlfriend who says yes she can wear this dress, she has no breasts... yes women are really hard on each other, but it's true that this Japanese angel has no breasts, even when I stand to the right of the TV I can't see anything... coming, yes Ian is screaming really well, it looks like a cheese organ, a dreamlike musical orgasm... yes I will leave alone with the last minute and his apoplexy... yes you have that in mind, that's also why you're reading 4 Flight Of The Rat long track which is worth more for its destructured organ and guitar solos than for the air; never hooked, plunging into it again a few years, a few decades later tells me about my musical ear, always neutral in the face of quality no matter what people say about it; it's over, no it starts again as if nothing had happened 5 minutes away; good the end with this rising drums, it's always a pleasure, I try to type as fast as the notes... I still can't do it 5 Into The Fire brings me back to uncompromising rock, a basic rhythm to get you moving is already not bad, 6 Living Wreck and its Ian-like drums quickly harangued by Jon's organ; a well-made ersatz, a facsimile of .... for example, with this little thing less that will make said piece not stand out; the riff is good, not held enough; the organ is excellent, that's what oriented me towards the heavy sound, knowing full well that prog rock had to be played louder 7 Hard Lovin' Man .. why wasn't he chosen to be on the Made In Japan? why a title that can be good can go by the wayside if it is not listened to enough? Why with Jon too forward? Why with Ian too monolithic to tap his drums? Why because Ian too absent to belch? Why because Ritchie was a little above the lot and showed the full extent of his talent already? In short, this title is worth by Ritchie's sexual dance with his guitar behind him, on the amps, on the returns on stage, guiding the sound a little there, a little elsewhere and shocking the public still too wise at the present time. .

Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger, Jon and Ian remember a great group that deciphered a lot of things in those remote times when one could invent. Deep Purple has created a monument in this darling year!
